Paradox promised official support after a patch broke mods
Official support for same-sex marriages will arrive inCrusader Kings 3as part of Update 1.5, launching alongside the first expansion in February. It’ll come as both a game rule for everyone and new options for modders to work with. It’s taken longer than expected, but Paradox adding an option for same-sex marriage without using mods is more than they had initially planned, so that’s nice.
Paradox announced ina developer diarythis week that 1.5 will bring support for same-sex marriage, “not only just in mods either but as a new game rule alongside the Same-Sex relations game rule so you can use it in un-modded games too.” They add that they have “updated a variety of AI logic and interactions and content to take that into account when playing.”
Paradox also say, “Mods are of course able to implement this into their different worlds without it having to be a game rule, it can be based on different cultures or anything in the game world at all.”
Update 1.5 will launch alongside Royal Court on the 8th of February. CK3’s first expansion ended up delayed a bit becauseParadox weren’t happy with stability. Better a delay than anotherwonky launch. Natechatted with the game’s directorabout Royal Court last year, if you’d like to know more.
In other CK3 news, Paradoxannouncedyesterday that the console version will launch March 29th on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Xeriex XS.
